A custom-built activation hub at Sirromet Winery featuring three bespoke 4x4 driving tracks, a pop-up event space housing 150 years of BFGoodrich heritage, and state-of-the-art LED installations across 8 waves of international guests.

Background

Michelin Global and BFGoodrich's biggest and most important product launch of the year for Michelin — bringing guests from all over the world to the Gold Coast to experience the new K03 All Terrain Tyre.

WAPH were engaged to create a truly immersive experience, from check-in at the hotel right through to departure, featuring 8 overlapping waves of guests and a number of bespoke driving experiences alongside stunning evening events and activities.

Objective

Emphasise brand heritage: highlight BFGoodrich's rich legacy with more than 150 years of industry leadership and achievement, address regions where BFGoodrich is perceived as niche, and elevate its visibility amongst the target audience — all while showing off the innovative and exceptional new K03 tyre.

Result

  • Over 300 attendees from more than 15 different countries, across 8 waves — each guest able to experience a truly once-in-a-lifetime, full-day drive experience.
  • Multi-language elements with carefully curated translation in 9 different languages.
  • All accommodation and travel arranged with the Phoenix touch, including a custom and exclusive check-in experience for all guests — complete with full branding and guest management. Guest survey rating: 9.9/10.

Concept Design

A takeover of Sirromet Winery, with 3 custom-built 4x4 driving tracks giving guests a hands-on experience testing the K03's capabilities. All based out of a custom-built hub — a pop-up event space showcasing the history of BFGoodrich, fitted with state-of-the-art LEDs and specialised activations.

Each wave was also treated to a gourmet dining experience in the evening, sampling local wines and flavours alongside a number of entertainment options and an immersive treasure hunt.
